This place looks fancy pants. Hey, Phizer, want to take me out to dinner, too? I am influential in the prescription drug community...

Translates roughly to, "I left my phone unlocked in my bag, and it decided to text Leila."

from a 253 phone number, Wednesday, July 22, 7:09 PM

253 and Leila appear to be going through a really emotional time, and I can't figure out why. When 253 promised/threatened to tell Leila about "things that r bothering me," this must have been the sort of thing she meant.
Where is my daughter?

Maybe this Intended Leila is a kidnapper!

Hey sexy

Not for me. These sorts never are.
Even though I do not, as a rule, believe in twitter (not least because it sounds like 'twat'), The Leila Texts now have a twitter account (http://twitter.com/theleilatexts), should you for some reason prefer to follow the technological misadventures of strangers via twitter rather than via blogspot.

The twitter account is just going to be a feed of what's on this blog, only less well-formatted, so I promise you will not "miss" anything if you don't follow The Leila Texts on twitter. It will basically just be the poor man's version of exactly what's on this webpage. But it's there if you want it.

I was so convinced that this was a booty text, due to a) the spelling of the word 'come' and b) the fact that it was sent at 2:36 AM EST. But then, a couple hours later, I received the follow-up text:

watchig bobby if u r still up? have gassssssssssss

Okay, so, not a booty text, then.

Sent the night after these. What gives? Why doesn't Leila ever see or hear from you, 253? Why didn't you take a goddamn cab up last on Friday night, like you offered to? Actions speak louder than words, and if you're that glad to have Leila in your life, why don't you show it by seeing her periodically?
